Thousands of sites on the net are providing advises on charming and mumbling against evil spells, confession though electronic date and a complete list of prayers, psalms for every mystery and a handbook for the making of your own bracelet from knots-prayers. Have a look and you will see it with your own eyes – about 109 million pages appear if you type the word “religion” in Greek. Starting with the official web site of the Athens archbishopric, you could find also web sites of Christian organizations, however also sites where people are convincing you to pay for breaking a spell.  

In the “mill” called world net there is place for everyone and you could find everything. For example father Andrey offers on his web site “Invisible paths” to make an appointment on the net in order to confess to him. Before somebody tries to speak against him he reinsures himself: “It is all about programming. In order for me to know that in a certain day there are twenty people waiting for him to confess and not forty”… you make your own conclusions. Apart from the confession on the internet, father Andrey advertises the holly CDs on the radio frequency of the church radio in Piraeus, one of which is called “Don’t forget to become a saint”.  

Another web site – “Nectar of the orthodoxy” offers a complete list of prayers, whishes, anthems for marriage, funeral and other mysteries, which any internet user could download and in case of need to listen quietly on his desk in his office.

A more useful information there is on the web site gonia.gr. There are listed 33 wishes in order for you to make “Komboskini”- this is a bracelet, which some very religious orthodox Christians wear with 33 knots – prayers. On the web site there is a recipe for the baking of a special bread which is given as a gift to the church, as well as the prayers which accompany the procedure of the preparation such as: “Dear Lord, I pray not to over bake it”.

Along with the serious advises for religious people, various charlatans are also finding their place on the net, trying to take advantage of the needs of the believers. It is easy for a person to find a web site proclaiming its developers as specialists in the… mumbling against evil spells. In her web site Mrs. DoraK offers mumbling against evil spells as a 5 euro service paid by a credit card or payPal. In case it is needed she performs the service on the internet or from a distance and gives advices 24 hours a day seven days a week!
